“As a City Councilor, G.T. has been steadfast in his support for the Tulsa Fire Department. His strong commitment to public safety and unwavering advocacy for our firefighters greatly benefits the citizens of Tulsa,” said Local 176 former President Sandy McGhee. “It is because of his unyielding determination to better this city and his understanding that it cannot be done without public safety as a top priority that the Tulsa Fire Fighter’s Political Action Committee proudly endorses G.T. Bynum for Tulsa Mayor.”

“Public Safety is the most vital role of any municipal government. As a member of the Tulsa City Council, I have always worked with my colleagues to improve public safety and will continue to do so as mayor,” stated Bynum. “Our firefighters must have an advocate in the Mayor’s Office who will stand up for them and make sure they have the resources needed to keep Tulsans safe.”

“Going back to my days working for the American Red Cross, I routinely joined firefighters at the scene of house fires in order to assist displaced families. That experience gave me tremendous admiration for the courage and selflessness our firefighters display in protecting Tulsans. I am honored to stand with these heroes as we continue to grow a coalition that will unite Tulsans and leave this city better for generations to come,” said Bynum.
